Score-based adjudication: Credit decisioning process that relies on quantitative models—typically credit scores and decision algorithms—to evaluate and approve credit applications. Score-based adjudication uses automated scoring models to assess the creditworthiness of applicants. These models analyze various data points (like payment history, business financials, industry risk, etc.) and assign a score that reflects the likelihood of repayment or default. Based on that score, the system can automatically approve, decline, or refer the application for manual review. Key Components: Credit Scorecards: These are statistical models that predict risk based on historical data. They’re tailored to small business profiles and often include variables like revenue, time in business, and payment behavior. Decision Models: These models interpret the score and apply business rules to make a credit decision. For example, a score above 700 might trigger automatic approval for loans under $100K. Risk Management Systems (RMS): These platforms manage the flow of applications, apply the models, monitor performance, and ensure compliance. Performance Monitoring: Ongoing tracking of how well the models are performing—are they predicting risk accurately? Are they aligned with business outcomes?
